Thanks so much. Didn't know about that shortcut. It's sure to come in handy.

Oh dear. I deleted it because I thought you had gotten it. They're back because Dropbox is awesome and saves deleted files.

Well, I got one. I missed the other. Got 'em now, so you can take them down

OK, this is a lot this time. But I'll have finale in less than a week (hopefully) so this won't need to happen yet again.
It's the Undersea Palace from Chrono Trigger in the form of a two Piano version and a solo version. The last parts of the Duet still need worked out, so it's only in one hand for the moment:
Solo (.mus) Two Pianos (.mus)
Both need:
--Measure numbers
--Removal of Pno. abbreviations
--Tempo Markings (quarter=142)
--Repeats that play back
--Back to measure 8 thing that works
--In Measure 21, the 32nd note needs to become a grace note and the double dot turned into a quarter
--Double bar lines on measure 32
--Re-arrangement of measures on page (especially duet)

Duet Needs:
--More than 2 lines per page
--Fixing of 8va markings that end at the 2nd measure of pg 3 (where left hand goes high)
--Right after ending of 8vb, right stays 8va while left goes into treble clef (notes are in correct octave)

Questions:
--Do the key changes need to be put in? It seems unnecessary. If added, please remember the double bar lines.
--Should there be twice as many notes per measure as I have now? Is there an easy fix? Correct time signature?
--Should the lowest parts be in the same hand?
--Any large inaccuracies? It's a first draft and I'm trying to get the formatting in as soon as possible, so there will be major revisions coming.

I'm leaving for a family vacation in the mountains and won't get any wi-fi, so I won't respond to anything until Sunday afternoon.

This arrangement needs just a few things done to it so the .mus is ready for submission:

1. Add measure numbers
2. Add a real tempo marking (currently it's just text)
3. Remove the stupid "Pno." before every line
4. Add a real 8vb marking on measures 61-62

Thanks!

One Piano
Two Pianos
I think I got everything. The song is in 3/4, and there were a few grace notes you didn't mention. You'll have to ask someone somewhere else about the arrangement itself beyond that.

This'll be my last request here ever, unless I decide to mess around with my older, unfinished stuff.

Solo (.mus) Two Pianos (.mus)

It just needs a key change with double bar lines to A minor in measures 45-52 on both pieces (The second part where it repeats)
Then I'll finally submit it.

Crud. I forgot to add that the last two bars of the left had 2nd piano need to be 8vb

From where ever the chord starts. I want another layer instead of just laying it overtop of the other hand.
